Rooms 2, 19, 10 and 8 visited the Auckland Museum. While we had enough time to look around all the exhibits at the museum, our main focus was Ancient Civilisations. We looked at artefacts, man made objects that give us clues as to how people lived in ancient times We all visited the Ancient Civilisation exhibition and took photos of artefacts from Ancient Rome, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece and Ancient China.
Everyone was impressed by the Ancient Egyptian mummy and its wooden mummy case. There were plenty of other artefacts to photograph and study in the Ancient Civilisations Hall as well.
After lunch, we visited the museum classroom to learn more about ancient artefacts. Each group was able to handle some artefacts and find about their original use. Then each group shared what they had found out with the rest of the class. Can you remember what each artefact was used for?
